Sense and Sensibility by Jane Austen My rating: 5 of 5 stars The first Jane Austen novel I tried reading was ‘Mansfield Park’ and I found it desperately dull. To my disappointment I thought that Austen was just not ‘for me’. However, I was pleasantly surprised to find that I absolutely loved ‘Sense and Sensibility’. […]

Angels in America, Part One: Millennium Approaches by Tony Kushner My rating: 5 of 5 stars Absolutely fantastic! Tony Kushner is a genius. Even though the play (including part 2) is eight hours long, every scene- every line, is crucial and important to the plot. Set in the 1980s amidst the AIDS crisis, Kushner raises […]

A Moveable Feast by Ernest Hemingway My rating: 5 of 5 stars ‘A Moveable Feast’ gave me a wonderful insight to Hemingway’s early life in Paris and the Lost Generation.

A Christmas Carol by Charles Dickens My rating: 3 of 5 stars The Ghost of Christmas Yet-to-Come is more terrifying than I remember!

Welcome Message

Hello you and welcome to my blog.

I set up this website when I was at the tender age of 15, and thought that the world revolved around boybands and Gossip Girl. Now, two years older, and hopefully wiser, I write recipes, post photos, update you all on my life and babble on about what I believe to be the best fashion trends, beauty and hair products. Also, since I am now politically active, I might write my views on certain global topics now and then.
